Evaluating Trogocytosis as a Predictor for CAR-T Cell Therapy Success in Lymphoma
Official title: La Trogocytose Est-elle un Marqueur prédictif de la réponse Aux Cellules CAR-T Dans Les Lymphomes Diffus à Grandes Cellules B ?
Run by University Hospital, Montpellier · NCT06352242 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study is testing if measuring a process called trogocytosis in immune cells can help predict how well CAR-T cell therapy works for people with lymphoma.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates for this study are adults over 18 years old diagnosed with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma who are scheduled to receive anti-CD19 CAR-T cell therapy.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients who are pregnant, breastfeeding, or unable to comply with the study procedures will not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies
This study investigates the role of trogocytosis, a process where immune cells acquire fragments of tumor cell membranes, as a potential predictive marker for the response to CAR-T cell therapy in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). By analyzing the level of trogocytosis in immune effector cells before and after CAR-T cell infusion, researchers aim to establish a correlation between these levels and patient outcomes at six months post-treatment. The study includes both patients undergoing CAR-T therapy and healthy volunteers for comparative analysis using flow cytometry techniques.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to a predictive test that helps identify which patients are likely to benefit from CAR-T cell therapy, potentially improving treatment outcomes.
How similar studies have gone: While the concept of using trogocytosis as a predictive marker is relatively novel, previous studies have shown promising correlations between immune cell behavior and treatment outcomes in hematological malignancies.
